[Leica] Panasonic G1 with Leica Glass

[jhnichols at lighttube.net (Jim Nichols)]

Gary,

So far as I know, the adapter would be Leica M (bayonet) mount to G1.  You 
should be able to use any LTM lens with its normal Leica adapter that fits 
an M camera.  However, take note that there is a factor of two involved in 
the angle of view.  A 90mm LTM would give you the view of an 180mm lens on 
the G1.
